Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 216 Golden Texture
"Bearing the power of the earth".

"Can Blue Silver Grass bear the power of the earth?" Han Tao questioned himself.

The Blue Silver Grass cannot bear the annihilation property, so Han Tao can only achieve an equivalent annihilation effect in a peculiar way.

Suddenly, Han Tao's eyes lit up: "Earth Dragon Golden Melon!"

Among the many immortal herbs, there is one called "Earth Dragon Golden Melon," which can increase a Soul Master's control over the power of the earth after consumption.

"The earthworm golden melon does not have the form of grass leaves, but it still belongs to the category of plants."

"It can bear the power of the earth, and Blue Silver Grass should be able to as well."

Although Han Tao did not possess the Earth Dragon Golden Melon, nor had he ever tasted this magical herb.

However, the "name" and "existence" are enough to help Han Tao point out the path and determine the feasibility of the evolutionary trajectory.

"The Earth Dragon Golden Melon is a reference answer for plants bearing the power of the earth, and there is also a reference answer among animal-type soul beasts."

"It's called."

Han Tao hesitated for a moment, but finally uttered the name: "Titan Ape".

Soul beasts, known as the children of the earth, are born with the power to control the earth's power. They are exceptionally gifted, and although their lifespan is only 60,000 to 70,000 years, their cultivation level has already reached the level of 100,000 years.

"Using the Titan Ape, we can understand how animal-type soul beasts bear the power of the earth."

"Perhaps it will help my Blue Silver Grass evolve!"

This is just one direction to explore.

When it comes to the advancement path of Blue Silver Grass, Han Tao will not give up any possibility, even if the enemy is a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

Because of the cultivation systems of spirit rings and spirit bones, humans and spirit beasts are natural enemies, and there is no right or wrong in their positions.

So, Han Tao approached Sword Douluo.

Sword Douluo, dressed in white, held a sword sheath and looked incredibly dashing.

Upon seeing Han Tao approach, Sword Douluo's expression changed in an instant, a truly fascinating display.
"Sword Douluo, I need to speak with you." Han Tao's tone was quite respectful.

However, the more he acted this way, the less happy Sword Douluo became, because the tasks Han Tao requested were often exceptionally complicated.

As a titled Douluo within a sect, he can usually disregard sect rules, but he can't bring himself to refuse a junior's request.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Han Tao organized his thoughts briefly: "Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, there is a 100,000-year-old soul beast called the Titan Giant Ape."

"Han Tao, you wouldn't be eyeing a 100,000-year-old soul beast, would you?" Bone Douluo laughed.

He glanced at Han Tao's body and said with a contemptuous tone, "At your level, you can't absorb a 100,000-year-old soul ring or soul bone!"

"No!" Han Tao interrupted, "I'm looking for it only to understand its physical structure and how the Titan Ape bears the power of the earth."

"With the power of the earth, perhaps I can evolve my martial spirit!"

As he spoke, Han Tao summoned his martial spirit again.

New blue silver grass blooms in the palm of your hand; the dark spider venom has faded, and the blue fluorescent energy is now purer.

However, in terms of strength, it is far inferior to the Dark Blue Silver Grass of the past.

Sword Douluo's face darkened: "Just for this?"

"I know your theoretical research requires some strange conditions, and you have achieved some results, but now gold soul coins can't satisfy your appetite?"

"They actually set their sights on a 100,000-year-old soul beast! That's a 100,000-year-old soul beast, not some random cat or dog!"

Bone Douluo's tone softened: "Hehe."

"Sword Douluo can beat me, but he can't defeat a 100,000-year-old soul beast!"

"What, are you proud of yourself?" Chen Xin rolled her eyes at him.

Han Tao gave an awkward smile and could only explain, "It's not like we're going to kill it!"

With perception as its primary evolutionary trend, Blue Silver Grass only needs a brief contact with Titan Ape to explore its form of bearing the power of the earth.

Calling on Sword Douluo was simply to add an extra layer of insurance to his actions.

Sword Douluo still didn't want to face the Titan Giant Ape and tried to argue, "All you want is earth element." "Xiao Yuan and Zhao Wuji's martial souls are both earth element, you can go find them, right?"

In Sword Douluo's understanding, earth element and earth power are the same thing, without any distinction.

However, the power of the earth is actually an advanced form of the earth element, and the two are fundamentally different.

Even before seeking Sword Douluo's help, Han Tao had already met Zhao Wuji and Xiao Yuan. The Mighty Vajra Bear and Violent Bear Martial Souls did indeed possess the form of bearing earth elements, but they were far from being able to harness the power of the earth.

“It’s different!” Han Tao replied.

"Earth element is not the power of the earth!" Han Tao's statement left Chen Xin bewildered.

When it came to theory, he was speechless for a moment, then glared at Gu Rong fiercely: "Heh!"

Don't fucking laugh at me, you don't know anything.

"Alright!" Chen Xin sighed.

"If I get into a fight with the Titan Ape, I won't have time to worry about you. I haven't learned the Distraction Control Technique."

"Okay!" Han Tao nodded.

Afterwards, the two headed deep into the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Titan Ape was exceptionally large, standing at least 15 meters tall. It resembled a black gorilla with golden patterns inlaid on its body.

The granite-like bulges on the outer layer of skin are an extreme expression of muscle strength.

Its perception was quite strong; sensing the arrival of Han Tao and Chen Xin, it immediately issued a shout:
"Humans, why are you invading my territory?"

The roar carried a series of shockwaves; if someone was physically weak, they might collapse to the ground and never get up again.

"Fortunately, it doesn't resonate at the same frequency," Han Tao thought to himself.

Assuming the Titan Ape understands what "synchronous resonance" is, and with its innate mastery of vibration, it could even threaten a Limit Douluo.

"Blue Silver Grass, Blue Silver Eye!"

Without much hesitation, Han Tao immediately unleashed his third soul skill, scattering thousands of blue silver grass seeds toward Er Ming.

Han Tao's actions at this moment were seen as a provocation.

fantasy
Soul power surged towards the Divine Court acupoint, and a layer of light and shadow appeared in the entire world, enveloping the massive body of the Titan Giant Ape.

Roar!
It roared and leaped toward Han Tao, slamming its fists into the ground.

Within the illusion, the Titan Ape clearly saw that its attack had directly crushed Han Tao, pinning him to the ground.

In reality, the Blue Silver Grass pulled Han Tao's body away from the center of the attack, taking him out of the Titan Giant Ape's striking range.

The Blue Silver Grass emitted a faint glow, and information about the Titan Ape's body was gradually transmitted into Han Tao's mind.

The Titan Ape was no pushover; the power of the earth transmitted the true senses of the surrounding Blue Silver Grass, making it aware of something amiss.

"Seven Killing Thunder Rise, One Sword Pierces the Sky!"

Then, Sword Douluo's eighth spirit ring lit up, and the Seven Kill Sword emitted a scarlet light. The sharp blade split into four pieces as if following a shadow, and was held by the four arms that Chen Xin had conjured.

Four crescent-shaped beams of shimmering white light suddenly pierced through the illusionary space and slashed down towards the Titan Ape.

"Ha! And they said they didn't know how to control distractions," Han Tao thought to himself.

Top-tier weapon spirits possess extreme offensive power.

The four sword shadows all landed on its shoulder, cutting a deep wound, and scarlet blood splattered down its body.

At the same time, Han Tao also received feedback from Blue Silver Grass.

"The clumping of granite is a specific manifestation of the earth's power integrating with its muscles."

"The golden patterns represent the flow of the earth's power and the distribution of energy within the body."

The Titan Ape was not wearing shoes.

The direct contact between the soles of the feet and the earth allows the profound earth energy from deep within the ground to be transmitted to all parts of the massive body through the "Yongquan acupoint" and the golden textured surface.
